This looks like a great opportunity in a great location!

Happy to share a new manuscript, led by Theresa Ibanez: Wildfire, salvage logging and warming: Their interactive effects on boreal conifer reforestation - Ibáñez - Journal of Applied Ecology - Wiley Online Library 👇👇👇 besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

A Meta‐Regression of 18 Wildfire Chronosequences Reveals Key Environmental Drivers and Knowledge Gaps in the Boreal Nitrogen Balance 🔗 buff.ly/IgjGnD0 @stefhupperts.bsky.social @michael-gundale.bsky.social

Looks like a great opportunity in a great location.

POSTDOC OPPORTUNITY: Come work with us in the Harvey Lab at Univ. of Washington (depts.washington.edu/bjhlab/)! We're hiring a postdoc in Forest Disturbance and Landscape Ecology. Full details here: ap.washington.edu/ahr/position... Application review starts Aug 31

Denali National Park!

Field work is underway in Interior Alaska! It is a tough job being an aspen in Alaska. If you escape the moose, then you have to deal with these leaf miners.

A great paper here by @stefhupperts.bsky.social. This opens the door to new research on other sources of N fixation in boreal forests👇 dx.doi.org/10.1111/gcb....

I'm so excited to share our new paper in Global Change Biology: A network of 18 wildfire chronosequences reveals key environmental drivers and knowledge gaps in the boreal nitrogen balance, with @michael-gundale.bsky.social and others. doi.org/10.1111/gcb....

Out today in Nature! We estimated a new global rate of N2-fixation, yielding new relationships between N2-fixation and NPP and ET. Great leadership by Carla Reis and Steve Perakis. 👇 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

📢 The @paqlab.bsky.social is recruiting a PhD (or MSc), and you don't want to miss that - best place ever to do you PhD! 😉 To work in IDENT, a network of experiments of the effects of diversity on forest functioning. Foreign student? It's gotten harder 😞 but we can help. paqlab.uqam.ca

Look like a great job opportunity in a very nice city and country.

Really excited to share the first data-based manuscript from our FORMAS funded project within the special call “The role of Swedish forests in the climate transition.” Here we focus on vegetation diversity, with excellent lead authorship by Vincent Buness.

Very informative chart from Washington Post

What types of tree species achieve the highest growth? We show, surprisingly, that tree species with conservative traits very often outperform acquisitive species, except in the most productive habitats. Excellent project lead by Laurent Augusto and Marie Charru. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Just waiting for a fish to bite.

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

Repost & like, if you stand with President Zelensky!

New paper alert. We compared foliar fungal communities in native and introduced populations for a pine species (Spoiler alert: fewer pathogens in exotic populations). Shout out to an excellent international network of collaborators. 👇👇👇 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for.

We are hiring! We have a vacancy for a 2-year postdoc in our department @niooknaw.bsky.social to work on plant and soil community dynamics in long-term experiments in natural grasslands. More info can be found here: nioo.knaw.nl/en/vacancies.... Please spread the word!

Job alert: Research ecologist at University of Wisconsin-Madison Arboretum jobs.wisc.edu/jobs/researc...

James Cook University has advertised a position for an Associate Professor of Ecosystem Processes Research. Please find full details here: careers.jcu.edu.au/jobs/associa...

Please share! Two excellent post doc opportunities in Forest Ecology in northern Sweden with my colleague David Wardle. 👇 eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com?url=https%3A...

Best wishes for 2025!! 🎊 I'm starting the year by reposting this exciting PhD position. We're still accepting applications until 17 February. Apply now or share with someone who might be interested! 🌲🌈🌡

New paper alert. We look at above and below ground trait coordination for twelve boreal tree species, led by Clydecia Spitzer. Check it out 👇

Check out our new paper where we zoom in to the boreal forests to investigate aboveground and belowground trait coordination across a large number of species. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Happy New Year! For new Forest Ecologists here: A while ago I put together a Forest Ecology Starter Pack👇 to help build a network of forest 🌲🌳🌴 ecology researchers. The list is now full but you can use it to “seed” your own network: follow folks, get followed, re-post, enjoy! 🌎🧪🌐 go.bsky.app/8ZNK9jy

Happy Solstice! That is the sun at its max height today in Umeå, Sweden.

There is excellent forest research in Finland. This looks like a great opportunity.

Please share. I am recruiting a PhD position on soil carbon dynamics in boreal forests in the context of management and disturbance👇 www.slu.se/en/about-slu...

Please share. We are recruiting a PhD student on herbivore effects on boreal forest stand development following wildfire and clear-cutting. 👇 www.slu.se/om-slu/jobba...

New paper out on soil carbon stock responses to clear-cutting in northern Boreal forests. If you are interested, check it out👇 kwnsfk27.r.eu-west-1.awstrack.me/L0/https:%2F...

Another beautiful sunrise with iridescent clouds in Umeå, Sweden today.

Tis the season for lussekatt.

If you are a handling editor, it is clearly important to verify email addresses of suggested reviewers to avoid fake reviewers. This is a crazy story of a colleague of mine at SLU, who was impersonated 22 times. www.science.org/content/arti...

🌎🧪Forest Ecology Starter Pack now available for those studying various aspects of forest 🌲🌳🌴ecosystems. The starter pack is limited to 150 names & it is now full. To grow your network: follow folks, get followed, re-post, & enjoy! go.bsky.app/8ZNK9jy

Winter has arrived in northern Sweden.

Looks like a great opportunity!

Summer feels like so long ago. Field work season is so much more fun than office season😉

When northern bogs first started forming following deglaciation, they caused some global warming. However, for the past many thousands of years they have cooled our climate. We need to save bogs and protect peat by keeping it mucky, healthy, and wet.

Looks like a great opportunity!

My view while eating a PB&J in the field yesterday. Just kidding……European brown bears at the Stockholm Zoo.

With all the new people joining the scientific community the past week I wanted to re-post this tenure-track job in environmental data science. There are ~10 days left until we start reviewing candidates. Come join us here in beautiful Upper Michigan on the shores of Lake Superior.
